Don't think this has been posted yet - a tourist on safari had a closer encounter than usual...

Surprised he didn't carry on taking pics - could have done them with a phone - lol

Awesome.
I dream of an encounter like that.
Obviously with the same non-fatal ending

The guy who got the photos took them with an iPad! Images taken by other tourists show it. I first saw it on the Daily Mirror site due to a facebook link. His face is great, all fine until it's inches away, sounds like it wasn't as tame as we think.
